I think maybe you compared the wrong things here. Both things being
compared should be directories, and then diffoscope would be able to
report the difference in their contents.

Maybe the second file is actually a compressed archive of a directory?
You can use `file 9z98cvjm7p7z21xdid1ryydxy5vyz6wr-python-3.7.0` to find
out.
